FORGETTABLE PERFORMANCE IN WVRAA MEET…Board Member James Magbanua is disappointed with regards to the dismal performance of the Capiz delegation in the recently concluded WVRAA meet in Iloilo City, which was dominated by Negros.
Capiz is just at the 5th place in the Elementary level, behind 3rd placer Aklan and 4th placer Antique. Meanwhile we placed 4th in the Secondary level after the province of Aklan at 3rd place .
Magbanua’s disappointment is understandable considering that as a Board Member, he’s the Chairman of the SP Committee on Education and a member of the provincial Local School Board and at the same time, witnessed how our athletes performed during the games.
BM Mitang told BK News that in some events during the WVRAA, he observed that our athletes lack stamina, teamwork, consistency and the will to win.
Stamina, teamwork, consistency and the will to win according to Magbanua are some of the basic elements on how to excel in sports.
With this lamentable results, BM Mitang is planning to call the people of the Department of Education-Capiz Division, in-charged of the WVRAA participation and other sports activities in the province and will seek their explanation with regards to the regrettable performance of our delegation.
Magbanua also hinted that he will deliver a privilege speech to inquire with the executive department pertaining to the sports program of the province and at the same time, inquire for the status of the “Provincial Sports Council”.
Some Members of the SP Capiz also expressed their disappointment on our WVRAA debacle and they are also calling for the timely review of provincial sports program, so as not to put Capiz in bad light again, during next year’s regional meet.
BM Mimi Ardivilla also expressed her “concern” on the WVRAA results for Capiz and she wanted a “deep” examination on our “deteriorating” WVRAA performance.
Despite the “poor performance” of the Capiz delegation for this year’s WVRAA, the Board Members emphasized that we should not blame our athletes and players for the regrettable results since they gave all their best.
SK Federation President Migo Herrera delivered a privileged speech few months ago in relation of his plan to "revitalize" the flagging sports program of the province.
As the Federation President of the SK in Capiz and as the Committee Chairman of the Youth and Sports Development in the Sanggunian Panlalawigan, Migo is in the right direction to fix the sports agenda of the province, says a former regional player of Capiz in a contact sport and now teaching in a private school here.
The former athlete also expressed dismay over the short training period, a.k.a. “housing”, provided by the DepEd on this year’s delegation for WVRAA meet, compared to much longer training and “housing” of Aklan, the 3rd placer of this year's regional meet.
Eight to 10 days of team and group training provided by Dep Ed is very short, sometimes insignificant according to him, since team sports such as Football, Basketball, Volleyball and even for other minor sports, need longer period of training to establish teamwork, consistency and organization.
There was a time during the 90’s and early 2000 according to records that Capiz delegation for WVRAA trained inside the Villareal Stadium for at least 30 days and the result was good.
This is the first time that Capiz landed on the 5th spot for Elementary level while for the Secondary level, it’s not a surprise that we maintained our 4th place finish.
Before the delegation's "eight (8) days housing and training" at the Villareal Stadium, Mr. Ronilo Tu, the Capiz Dep Ed's Sports Coordinator, told BK News that the athletes who will represent for Capiz in the WVRAA Meet already started their training before joining on their respective local sports competitions such as the City Division Meet, CAPRISA Meet and the Provincial Meet.
Mr. Tu will be on the "hot seat" again, just like the previous years after the WVRAA meet. Poor guy !
Next time, we will discuss the problems confronting our wvraa meet delegation and everybody is free to contribute their analysis and probable solution so that we can be of help to our future athletes.
